pipe in his right hand and a finger of the left laid to his nose. 
He is clad in a long-tailed blue coat, buttoned over the chest,

In the heart of the oak woods, amid a tangle of a eae 
appears a rude hut, built of light-colored logs stripped of their 
bark. A man is approaching it from the right, carrying a fagot 
of firewood on his shoulder. He wears blue trousers, but from 
the waist up seems to be nude. A single birch spires up from 
behind the hut, and the foliage shows against a white fluster 
of cloud, though the lower sky is a faint warm blue.

ered with dark olive vegetation, but at the foot of them 
appears a belt of light green. The foreground is laid in in 
tones of drab and dull olive, over which are swirls of greyish 
white. About the centre appears a figure in dark blue with 
white cap. The whole is brushed in broadly and sketchily, as if 
to record a certain fugitive effect of nature’s color-harmony.

A. PICTURESQUE row of buildings extends A. Eder, left 
middle distance nearly across the scene. Starting with a ‘et 
stucco building, conspicuous by its tall chimney, rising from 
the ground, it continues in two attached structures with brown 
wooden roofs and galleries, under the second of which is an 
open space for the storing of boats. Abutting on the end of 
this is a lower shed, also of brown wood, with its side formed 
of slats and folding doors at its extremity. On the slope of 
shore in front of these buildings two boats are drawn up, one 
with a red and yellow sail spread over it like a tent. The 
colors are reflected in the dove grey water that fills the fore- 
ground. On the right of the latter looms up the prow of a 
big black gondola. Back of it is the short vista of a canal, 
bordered on the right with white buildings and terminating in 
a bridge toward which a gondolier is urging his craft. The 
delicate green of trees is sprayed against the pale blue sky.

AN irregular path leads from the front across a rough pasture, 
where the soil shows between tussets of dark olive-green grass. 
Accompanied by a child, a woman in white cap and black 
shawl and dress is walking along it. To the left of the couple 
is a single slender tree. Further back a cold gleam of light 
strikes across the scene, beyond which the roofs of a village, 
appear among trees. Rising above the lower greenery are five 
clumps of taller trees, between two of which, on a line with 
the path, rises a church spire.

THE lofty square tower of the Groote Kerk, surmounted by 


two turrets, from one of which the Holland ensign floats, rears 
up in the centre of the sky. The latter is filled with a scatter 
of white clouds under a canopy of soft blue. The tower rises 
behind a screen of trees that extends:across the picture. In 
front of it, in the centre, is a substantial building with a red 
gable. It abuts on the quay, which here crosses the picture 
and on the left stretches to the foreground. Along its edge 
are moored various craft with brown hulls and drab sails, 
enlivened here and there with red. These tints mingle with 
green and grey reflections on the surface of the water, which is 
interrupted on the right by five mooring-posts with white tops.

green grass sprinkled here and there with flowers. <A lady is 
seated to the right of the centre, dressed in a deep blue cloak 
over a gown of paler blue that shows the rose of the petticoat. 
She holds a white umbrella over her head, and a child in blue 
is seated near her. Behind the figures rise two slim birches, 
with a sprinkle of leaves. They are on the edge of a belt of 
shadow that crosses the picture horizontally. Within this is 
a thicket of tender saplings and the trunk of a pollard willow. 
Beyond them extends a horizontal line of fence, near the right 
of which stand conspicuously four bare tree-stems, one of 
which is markedly crooked. A wood is faintly visible on 
the horizon, over which spreads a dove grey sky, slightly 


tinged with rose.

are talking to a man on foot who holds three hounds by a leash. 
They resemble greyhounds except that their tails are bushy. 
The front horse is a blue-grey, his rider being dressed in an

The man behind him makes a note of dull geranium hue, which 
is repeated in the tunic of the mounted servant, over whose knees

In a deep greenish blue sky, threaded with grey and white 
vapor, hangs the full moon. It has just risen above a level 
hill that shows in the distance between two dark masses of 
foliage. One of these is near the foreground, on the left of a 
pool in which the moon’s reflection makes a splash of white 
amid the tawny browns and greens of the water’s surface. The 
other clump in the middle distance shelters the roofs of cot- 
tages, and the ground rises from it to a knoll on the right, 
where farm buildings appear amid trees, one of the latter be- 
ing a tall poplar. From this point the meadow descends in 
tones of mossy green and golden brown until it forms a curving 
bank to the water, which in front. of it is shaggy with sedge 
and reeds.
